Full-Face Rotor Protection for a 73kg Bike
The Arctic Leopard XE Pro S — the Vetra Blazer in some markets — is one of the heavier bikes in this class. This kit gives it a 240 or 250mm floating rotor, a genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee caliper and master cylinder and a steel-braided line, behind the closed-face shield guard.
- Closed-face guard — a solid plate over the disc, for rocky ground
- Bracket cut for the Arctic Leopard fork — M6 x 50mm spacing, not the M5 pattern the other bikes use
- Seven anodised finishes — including Grey and Dark Brown
- Genuine Ultra Bee caliper + master cylinder — not a copy
Classic Shield or Open Frame — Which EBG Guard?
This kit and the V2 kit are the same brake. The only thing that changes is the rotor guard, and that is a choice about how you ride, not about stopping power.
| Classic Shield — this kit | Open Frame — V2 kit | |
|---|---|---|
| Guard face | Solid plate, closed face | Open frame, rotor left exposed |
| Colours | 7 — including Grey and Dark Brown | 5 |
| Caliper | Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee | Identical |
| Master cylinder | Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee, right hand | Identical |
| Rotor | 240 or 250 × 3.5 mm floating | Identical |
| Pads and line | Semi-metallic, steel-braided PTFE | Identical |
| Price | The same either way — pick the guard you prefer | |

What It Replaces on an Arctic Leopard
The factory front rotor is 220mm across and 2.5mm thick, fixed to the hub. This kit takes it to 240 or 250mm at 3.5mm on a floating carrier, for up to 30% more stopping power on a bike whose weight works against its brake. Roughly 9 to 14% is diameter; the rest is pad compound, line stiffness and the caliper.
Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee Hydraulics
The market is full of Ultra Bee caliper and master cylinder copies. They photograph the same and cost less, and the difference is in the piston bores and the seals — which you find out on a steep descent. Every Arctic Leopard / Vetra kit we ship uses genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee parts.
Which Arctic Leopard / Vetra Option Do I Need?
- Brake Kit + Front Rotor Guard + Rotor — the complete kit with the classic shield guard. Choose the V2.1 or V3.0 rotor.
- Brake Kit + Rotor — the same, without the guard.
- Brake Kit Only — for a bike already running a 240 or 250mm rotor.
- Front Brake Bracket Only — the radial mount bracket on its own, M6 x 50mm.
